185: Chapter 184: Do You Like Me?
“It’s okay, I guess, but how do you plan to sit in this double seat?
Won’t you be sitting with your female companion?” Song Yun curiously asked.
“Yeah, the two of them are sitting up front, and I’m sitting here by myself,” Shen Yan sighed.
“You’re lucky to have a girl next to you, unlike this lone wolf here.”
“That’s because you have bad karma,” Song Yun laughed and teased.
Shen Yan shrugged his shoulders and didn’t retort.
He put on his headphones, closed his eyes and started to sleep.
Song Yun, with no one to banter with anymore, began looking for something to do.
But what could one really do on a plane?
So, Song Yun peered towards Xiao Qing’s seat.
Xiao Qing was busy playing a game on her PSP.
“Xiaoqing, what game are you playing?” Song Yun watched the game console as one loli character after another popped up, followed by Xiao Qing pressing a few buttons and then moving on to the next level.
“Ah, it’s like a nurturing game,” Xiao Qing said with a blush and in a soft voice.
“What’s a nurturing game?” At this moment, the words “loli nurturing” sprang into Song Yun’s mind, unsure if this game was related to that concept.
“A nurturing game requires you to cultivate a specific character within the game and build up intimacy.
Once the intimacy level reaches a certain point, you move on to the next level, all the way until the game ends,” Xiao Qing explained.
“I didn’t expect you to be into this kind of thing.
Are there any risque scenes in it?” Song Yun asked with raised eyebrows and a mischievous smile.
This question about whether there were risque scenes left Xiao Qing blushing and speechless for a while, shocking Song Yun, who then quietly asked, “Does it really have racy stuff in it?”
“I’m playing a romance nurturing game.
There’s a little bit of that, and it’s from RB, so…” Xiao Qing mumbled, too embarrassed to look at Song Yun.
Seeing an opportunity to tease, Song Yun, smiling at the PSP screen, said, “I never thought someone as quiet and demure as you could be moved by spring emotions.”
“There’s nothing like that, I only play this kind of game when I have nothing else to do,” Xiao Qing countered.
“Plus, this type of game isn’t what you think.
The relationships in it are very innocent.”
“With risque scenes already in there, you still call it innocent?” Song Yun chuckled.
“It must get quite intimate, huh?
C’mon, tell your Senior Brother Song all about it.”
“There…
it’s just a kiss,” Xiao Qing muttered.
“What did you say?
I didn’t catch that.” Song Yun exaggeratedly leaned closer to Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing shoved Song Yun’s head back, her small hands pounding on him.
“Senior Brother Song, you’re so bad, I’m not going to bother with you anymore.”
“Don’t be like that.
If you ignore me, wouldn’t that make my trip out here very lonely?” Song Yun glanced at Xiao Qing, perhaps having teased her too much, so he quickly started to plead.
Pouting, Xiao Qing turned her head towards the airplane window in a supremely haughty way.
Song Yun gently shook her arm and said, “Little Qingqing, I was wrong, really I was.
Please forgive me just this once.
If it’s really necessary, we can play together.
Look, your game is about romance, right?
But playing alone is so boring.
If I joined in and we chose the options together, wouldn’t that feel more immersive?”
“Do you really know what you did wrong?” Xiao Qing turned to look at Song Yun.
“I really do realize my mistakes.
Let’s play together,” Song Yun shifted closer to Xiao Qing and said.
Xiao Qing had never been so close to a man, especially with Song Yun’s face almost pressing against her.
Even so, she didn’t feel the slightest aversion in her heart, but rather a small thrill.
Shaking her head, she sternly thought to herself, Xiao Qing, get a grip.
Now’s not the time for romance.
Senior Brother Song has been driven to this point, exiled from his home.
She shouldn’t add to his troubles.
Letting out a sigh, Xiao Qing said, “Let’s start the game from the beginning.”
It must be said that the two were highly efficient.
Having different opinions as a man and a woman meant choosing different options in the game.
Since it was a romance nurturing game, one had to appeal to a little girl’s heart.
Song Yun, with his years of psychological research, not only completed the game, but also unlocked several hidden levels.
Watching Song Yun, Xiao Qing laughed and said, “So Senior Brother Song turns out to be someone who really understands what’s going on in a girl’s mind.
No wonder so many girls like Senior Brother Song.”
“Do you like me?” Song Yun asked with a smirk.
Xiao Qing looked surprised, turned pink, and after an awkward moment finally said, “If you keep teasing me, Senior Brother Song, I’ll ignore you.”
“How is this teasing?
It’s a serious question.
You said many girls like me, so I just wanted to know if you’re one of them.”
“Ah, how could a girl feel comfortable saying something like that!” Xiao Qing covered her face, feeling her cheeks burning like she had a fever.
Seeing Xiao Qing’s face flushed with shyness, Song Yun leaned in closer, his face almost touching hers.
“If you don’t like me, then why say such things?
You got my hopes up for nothing.”
“Ah!!
Such things should not be said,” Xiao Qing stated earnestly.
“Why not?
Isn’t expressing your feelings for someone necessary?
How can it be unspeakable?” Song Yun turned his head as if upset and said.
Xiao Qing, not expecting Song Yun to be angry, pleaded in a soft tone, shaking his arm, “Please don’t be mad at Xiao Die, Senior Brother Song.
You look so scary when you’re angry.”
“I’m not angry with you; I’m angry with myself for not being able to make you like me,” Song Yun said seriously, looking at Xiao Qing.
“Xiaoqing, do you like me?”
“Like you how?” Li Shishi asked, resting her head on Song Yun’s shoulder.
This startled Song Yun quite a bit.
He was in the middle of flirting with Xiao Qing and then, out of nowhere, someone’s head popped up next to him.
If Song Yun hadn’t reacted quickly, he might have lashed out without thinking.
“What are you guys talking about, something about liking and not liking?” Li Shishi asked curiously, looking at Song Yun.
“Heh, it’s nothing.
I was just joking with Xiaoqing,” Song Yun laughed awkwardly.
“What are you doing here and not sitting properly in your seat?”
“I just wanted to go to the bathroom, and then I saw you two chatting so animatedly,” Li Shishi pouted and said.
“I thought you were discussing some secret.
Turns out as soon as I come over, you both clam up.
It’s no fun.
If I had known, I would have eavesdropped for a bit longer.”
